essentially my second take on a classics galvatron.the first try was simply just a repaint of the horrible deluxe thing that falls apart when you look at it funny.
this one is a mish mash of too much to list it all,and while i built this one,i kept referring to artwork done by either dreamwave or idw,mostly for the resulting color scheme.
all was base coated in a deep royal purple(which shows up with a weird bluish tint on my camera?),then dry brushed tamiya x-16 for the top coat purple,and tamya xf-80 royal light grey as his secondary colors.
he's now more in scale with the original classics bots,sized at about a normal voyager before the size class downsizing by hastak recently.

short form list of parts used=

tf vs marvel xover spiderman(combining air wing/bomber thing)=main torso and legs and hip armor.
cybertron wingsaber=arms.
powerrangers police zord= head(after resculpting)and hands.
energon leader megatrons shoulder cannon= cannon tip
energon steam hammer,minicon post,now used as the arm cannon mount.
loonie store police roof light bar,cut in half for his new trapezoidal armor.
g1 bonecrusher,his new treads in alt mode.
cybertron leader optimus's matrix,dyed then dry brushed,with a chain added.
g1 galvatron,new accurate backpack and alt mode support and gun grip.
a whole lot of styrene.

with an as yet untouched scourge

with my first stab at galvatron(again,it's my camera that gives the bluish tint:banghead:)

posability is all there,wrists,elbows,shoulders,head,hips legs,etc,unlike the first version original mold where his articulating is extremely limited.

looks great. Does it transform? I didn't see alt mode pictures. (Update: Now I see the alt mode)
Also, the only thing I'm not so satisfied is the head, looks to me not mean enough.

looks great as always buddy. but.. erm. that one pick with scourge looks like its his "mount me mode"

with the hand out like that all i can think of is scourge saying. "thats right bitch, who's your daddy?"

he is on his forearms and with his legs completely spread. lol come on Otis. there is kids on this board also im sure. keep is PG-13... you and your dirty pics. your going to get Jourdo all excited.
lol ;)

Matrix, he's fantastic! :)

I recommend some gray paint apps on his arms and gun base. Just multiple small touches. It'll really bring out the awesome details. :)
